Top 5 K’nex Toys
Caitlin Posted on:-24-11-21 Top Lists,
K’nex Toys is a creative brand that produces construction toys for kids. Building and construction toys such as K’nex are great in many different ways, let’s highlight a few of the benefits:
- Imagination and creativity – When children are using construction toys they are engaging their creative minds. K’nex pieces can be made into anything and connected together in a number of different combinations. Children must use their imagination to make a structure out of the pieces!
- Motor skills – K’nex pieces must be put together and connected to create a structure, object, or toy. This takes hand-eye coordination, and the more the pieces are played with the better the hand-eye coordination and motor skills become!
- Mental stimulation – Some building sets come with instructions to make a specific object, this means a child must follow these instructions and problem solve when things go wrong. This encourages logical thinking and can help develop intellect.
- Social interaction – Building toys are made to share, and some sets are more fun to make with friends. Encouraging children to play together means they learn how to interact and co-operate with one another, it’s their first experience of teamwork!
We’re pleased to welcome all of the K’nex Toys into the Toy Street family! To celebrate, we’re sharing our top five favourite K’nex toys with you!
